I misspoke in the intro, it's episode 164, not 165.From player to coach, coach to triathlete, triathlete to coach, Paul Moores wasn't daunted by life events. He lived them and went to what he loves doing; coaching and helping others. Paul talks about his spectacular bike crash during an Ironman Triathlon in Mount Tremblant, Quebec. A coach, at all many levels, for much of his life, Paul took about a ten year hiatus until his rehab psychologist, encouraged him to get back to teaching, leading, encouraging others. I met Paul in the pool, swimming, and helping others to reach whatever level of performance they were aiming for!Please subscribe, rate, and review this podcast everywhere, including YouTube!Check out the podcast sponsors HeadCheck Health !Please help support this podcast by checking out the advertisers at www.concussiontalk.comConcussion Talk t-shirts, hoodies, etc., are found at the Store tab on www.concussiontalk.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/concussion-talk-podcast.

I've taken some time off from podcasting this summer, but as the 20th anniversary of my brain injury approached I found myself wanting to do another episode! Hence episode 162 with Pam Prewett and the Victoria Brain Injury Society (VBIS), Victoria, B.C., Canada. It is where I was doing my Masters in Public Administration (MPA) when I was in a nasty bike crash that put me in a coma for two weeks and resulted in a severe brain injury - as discussed in episode 100 and in my ebook, Detour.I encourage everyone, whether you're in B.C. or not, to check out the VBIS website and, if you're around Victoria, to drop in and hear about all of the incredible services they provide for brain injury survivors and caregivers. It is very impressive!We also talked about the importance of funding for brain injury associations! The difficulty of garnering funding and resources without awareness in order to raise awareness! As brain injury is an invisible and, dare I say, silent injury, raising awareness is made that much harder!Pl
